摘要:
A storage means access control method for an NC system, which has no adverse effect on the execution of an NC instruction. The NC system has a first storage means and a second storage means having an access time longer than that of the first storage means, and sequentially executes NC instructions in blocks of an NC program stored in the first storage means, block by block. The NC instructions in the blocks of the NC program are previously classified into waitable instructions and unwaitable instructions. When there is a request for access to the second storage means during execution of the NC program, if an NC instruction in an execution block to be executed subsequently is a waitable instruction, access to the second storage means is executed after the NC instruction in the execution block has been executed. If the NC instruction in the execution block is an unwaitable instruction, access to the second storage means is not executed after the NC instruction in the execution block has been executed.

A numerical controller which, after once stopping a slave axis during superposing control, can easily resume the superposing control. In the superposing control, a motion amount for a master axis and a motion amount for the slave axis are added to a workpiece coordinate value of the master axis and a workpiece coordinate value of the slave axis, respectively, to update their present position data (I2, II2). These motion amounts are supplied also to servo processing (I3, II3) for the master axis and the slave axis, where an amount obtained by superposing a motion amount nullzIm for the master axis ZIm on a motion amount nullzIIs for the slave axis ZIIs is supplied to the servo processing for the slave axis ZIIs. When a slave axis motion stop command is issued, the motion of the slave axis is stopped and a motion amount nullzIm for the master axis ZIm is subtracted from the workpiece coordinate value of the slave axis ZIIs. This makes it possible to retain the positional relationship between the master axis and the slave axis, and hence easily resume the superposing control when the motion of the slave axis is restarted.

A program control system in a multitask environment to execute a plurality of programs in parallel. The system includes a program execution control device for controlling an execution of a plurality of programs, a first program and a second program which are mutually related, a subtask execution recognition device for recognizing a subtask execution command in the first program, and a resumption control device for resuming the first program in response to both a wait command in the first program and an end command in the second program of the task associated with the task of the first program. When the subtask execution command is recognized by the subtask execution recognition device while the first program is being executed, the second program is also executed. When the end command in the second program is detected while the first program is in a wait state under the wait command, the resumption control means allows the program execution control means to resume the first program.

A standby control for a machine tool. The standby control is operable for regulating the energy consumption of one or more energy-consuming components of the machine tool during nonoperation of the machine tool. The standby control includes a controller operable to individually activate or deactivate energy-consuming components according to a predeterminable input value in order that a temperature of at least one of the individual components or a temperature of the machine tool is influenced during nonoperation of the machine tool.

A bidirectional communications link, termed a customization window, comprises a series of routines including functions, procedures and status flags implemented in software, interfaced between a machine control logic (MCL) operating to control the auxiliary functions of a computerized numerical control (CNC) system and a numerical control (NC) operating to control the multi-axis motions of the system whereby the MCL, implemented in software, can access the NC, also implemented in software, and control the system but only under conditions dictated by the NC and enforced by the routines of the customization window so that, for example, the integrity of the NC software will not be compromised by any of the MCL software which is of a user programmable type. Additionally, machine setup data and the availability of optional system control features are routed from the NC to the MCL through the customization window. Also the customization window conveys the status of the various operational conditions of the NC to the MCL.

A numerical controller which, after once stopping a slave axis during superposing control, can easily resume the superposing control. In the superposing control, a motion amount for a master axis and a motion amount for the slave axis are added to a workpiece coordinate value of the master axis and a workpiece coordinate value of the slave axis, respectively, to update their present position data (I2, II2). These motion amounts are supplied also to servo processing (I3, II3) for the master axis and the slave axis, where an amount obtained by superposing a motion amount δzIm for the master axis ZIm on a motion amount δzIIs for the slave axis ZIIs is supplied to the servo processing for the slave axis ZIIs. When a slave axis motion stop command is issued, the motion of the slave axis is stopped and a motion amount δzIm for the master axis ZIm is subtracted from the workpiece coordinate value of the slave axis ZIIs. This makes it possible to retain the positional relationship between the master axis and the slave axis, and hence easily resume the superposing control when the motion of the slave axis is restarted.

A control apparatus for a built-on machine tool according to the invention has a plurality of heads or cutters connected to control axes of respective control systems which are controlled independently by individual control programs. The apparatus includes commander for synchronously issuing a standby command or standby-cancellation command to each system, and timing setting means for setting standby command timing or standby-cancellation command timing between systems brought into coincidence by the command means, wherein standby timing or standby-cancellation timing set with regard to the program of one specific system decides the timing of standby control by the program of another specific system. As a result, a system to be put on standby and a system to be released from standby can be designated at will to enable highly efficient control of the machine tool.

NC programs (11a-11d) are provided for corresponding ones of movable elements for prescribed axes, and the movable elements are moved by performing numerical control processing in numerical controllers (12a-12d) based on the NC programs. A plurality of axes to be synchronously controlled are designated by a synchronous axis command (SANC) inserted in the main NC program (11a), queuing commands (WNC) are inserted in the NC programs conforming to the movable elements which include the designated axes, and the corresponding movable elements are moved and controlled by performing numerical control processing while synchronization is achieved by the queuing commands.
